.There's
No Place Like Home
You've carefully planned for your outpatient surgery. The day has come
for your procedure. Your doctor gives you a reassuring smile in the recovery
room that everything went perfectly. Now its time to recover.
Can
you think of any better place to heal and recover than your own bed?
Recovery Care sitters take you home and tuck you into your own bed
so you can begin to heal at home. They stay with you and take care of you during
the critical hours following your procedure.
Expect the unexpected. When you come out of surgery your recovery room will be in a fully equipped outpatient medical facility. Once you emerge from the effects of the anesthesia and have been stabilized you will be released to go home.
Take Better Care of Yourself With Recovery Care
Once you leave the outpatient surgery center
you
are responsible for your recovery. You want to ensure that whatever was accomplished
during your surgery will be maintained as you start the recovery process at
home.
It is always best to err on the side of safety following your outpatient surgery
and arrange for a qualified caregiver to assist you at home during these
critical hours following your procedure. By expecting the unexpected you have
capable assistance should something not go as planned.
Prior to your procedure you can arrange to meet with a Recovery Care supervisor
to assist you with making arrangements for pre-surgical preparations to post-surgical
care and home recovery.
